The Rock Springs Chamber of Commerce is dedicated to enhancing Sweetwater County's quality of life and economic vitality through a cooperative Sweetwater County.

Rock Springs is known as the home of 56 nationalities; a true melting pot. Formed by the railroad and coal mines, Rock Springs offers a variety of recreational opportunities for visitors and residents alike. Established in 1888 as a mining town, the natural resources around the area are the driving force behind the Rock Springs economy.

The Sand Dunes, just a few miles north of Rock Springs, are the largest in North America. As you approach modern-day Rock Springs, you can almost imagine earlier travelers bouncing along the Overland Stage Route toward the welcome stage station that was the beginning of the town in 1862. For years the area provided millions of tons of coal to feed the nation's locomotives. Today, the Rock Springs area continues to have a leadership role in the nation's energy production.
